Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

D
Engorgement is more likely to increase if breastfeeding is delayed or infrequent. A well-fitting bra should be worn both day and night to support the breasts. Cold applications are used between feedings to reduce edema and pain. Heat is applied just before feedings to increase vasodilatation. Massage of the breasts causes release of oxytocin and increases the speed of milk release.
